- Changes in this update:
- Better GStreamer error reporting. MediaPlayer used to only report `MEDIA_ERROR_UNKNOWN`, now reports more specific errors as defined in `ErrorType.h`.
- Codebase has been formatted for easier reading.
- `DirectiveRouter::removeDirectiveHandler()` signature changed and now returns a bool indicating if given handler should be successfully removed or not.
- Cleanup of raw and shared pointers in the creation of `Transport` objects.
- `HTTP2Stream`s now have IDs assigned as they are acquired as opposed to created, making associated logs easier to interpret.
- `AlertsCapabilityAgent` has been refactored.
- Alert management has been factored out into an `AlertScheduler` class.
- Creation of Reminder (implements Alert) class.
- Added new capability agent for `PlaybackController` with unit tests.
- Added Settings interface with unit tests.
- Return type of `getOffsetInMilliseconds()` changed from `int64_t` to `std::chronology::milliseconds`.
- Added `AudioPlayer` unit tests.
- Added teardown for all Integration tests except Alerts.
- Implemented PlaylistParser.
- Bug fixes:
- AIP getting stuck in `LISTENING` or `THINKING` and refusing user input on network outage.
- SampleApp crashing if running for 5 minutes after network disconnect.
- Issue where on repeated user barge-ins, `AudioPlayer` would not pause. Specifically, the third attempt to “Play iHeartRadio” would not result in currently-playing music pausing.
- Utterances being ignored after particularly long TTS.
- GStreamer errors cropping up on SampleApp exit as a result of accessing the pipeline before it’s been setup.
- Crashing when playing one URL after another.
- Buffer overrun in Alerts Renderer.
- [SampleApp crashing when issuing "Alexa skip" command with iHeartRadio.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/153)
- [`HTTP2Transport` network thread triggering a join on itself.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/127)
- [`HTTP2Stream` request handling truncating exception messages.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/67)
- [`AudioPlayer` was attempting an incorrect state transition from `STOPPED` to `PLAYING` through a `playbackResumed`.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/138)
Changes in this update
- Implemented `setOffSet` in `MediaPlayer`.
- Updated `LoggerUtils.cpp` to address
(https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/77).
- Bug fix to address incorrect stop behavior caused when Audio Focus
is set to `NONE` and released. This addresses
(https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/129).
- Bug fix for intermittent failure in `handleMultipleConsecutiveSpeaks`.
- Bug fix for `jsonArrayExist` incorrectly parsing JSON when trying
to locate array children.
- Bug fix for ADSL test failures with `sendDirectiveWithoutADialogRequestId`.
- Bug fix for `SpeechSynthesizer` showing the wrong UX state when a
burst of `Speak` directives are received.
- Bug fix for recursive loop in `AudioPlayer.Stop`.
Changes in this update
- Removed code from AIP which propagates ExpectSpeech initiator strings to subsequent Recognize events. This code will be re-introduced when AVS starts sending initiator strings.
Changes in this update
- Added a fix to the sample app so that the StateSynchronization event is the first that gets sent to AVS.
- Added a POST_CONNECTED enum to ConnectionStatusObserver.
- StateSychronizer now automatically sends a StateSynchronization event when it receives a notification that ACL is CONNECTED.
- Added make install for installing the AVS Device SDK.
- Added an optional make networkIntegration for integration tests for slow network (only on Linux platforms).
- Added shutdown management which fully cleans up SDK objects during teardown.
- Fixed an issue with AudioPlayer barge-in which was preventing subsequent audio from playing.
- Changed Mediaplayer buffering to reduce stuttering.
- Known Issues:
- Connection loss during listening keeps the app in that state even after connection is regained. Pressing ‘s’ unsticks the state.
- Play/Pause media restarts it from the beginning.
- SpeechSynthesizer shows wrong UX state during a burst of Speaks.
- Quitting the sample app while AudioPlayer is playing something causes a segmentation fault.
- AudioPlayer sending PlaybackPaused during flash briefing.
- Long Delay playing live stations on iHeartRadio.
- Teardown warnings at the end of integration tests.
Changes in this update
- Added `AudioPlayer` capability agent.
- Supports iHeartRadio.
- `StateSynchronizer` has been updated to better enforce that `System.SynchronizeState`is the first Event sent on a connection to AVS.
- Additional tests have been added to `ACL`.
- The `Sample App` has been updated with several small fixes and improvements.
- `ADSL` was updated such that all directives are now blocked while the handling of previous `SpeechSynthesizer.Speak`
directives complete. Because any directive may now be blocked, the `preHandleDirective() / handleDirective()` path
is now used for handling all directives.
- Fixes for the following GitHub issues:
- https://github.com/alexa/alexa-client-sdk/issues/44.
- A bug causing `ACL` to not send a ping to AVS every 5 minutes, leading to periodic server disconnects, was fixed.
- Subtle race condition issues were addressed in the `Executor` class, resolving some intermittent crashes.
Changes in this update
- Added a sample app that leverages the SDK.
- Added an implementation of the `Alerts` capability agent.
- Added the `DefaultClient` class.
- Added the following classes to support directives and events in the
`StateSynchronizer`, `EndpointHandler`, and `ExceptionEncounteredSender`.
- Added unit tests for `ACL`.
- Updated `MediaPlayer` to play local files given an `std::istream`.
- Changed build configuration from `Debug` to `Release`.
- Removed `DeprecatedLogger` class.
Changes in this update
- Added a getConfiguration() method to DirectiveHandlerInterface to register Capability Agents with Directive Sequencer.
- Fix race condition with reading attachments before a writer exists.
- Use of new Logging abstraction layer in modules - ADSL,AFML,ContextManager,AuthDelegate,AIP,KWD,Mediaplayer.
- Added ACL stream processing with Pause and redrive.
- Removed the dependency of ACL Library on Authdelegate.
- Added and interface to allow ACL to Add/Remove ConnectionStatusObserverInterface.
- Fixed compile errors in KittAi, DirectiveHandler and compiler warnings in AIP test.
- Corrected formatting on the files.
- Fixes for the following Github issues
- https://github.com/alexa/alexa-client-sdk/issues/21
- https://github.com/alexa/alexa-client-sdk/issues/25
Changes in this update:
- Added the SpeechSynthesizer, an implementation of the SpeechRecognizer capability agent.
- Implemented a reference MediaPlayer based on [GStreamer](https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/) for audio playback.
- Added the MediaPlayerInterface that allows you to implement your own media player.
- Updated ACL to support asynchronous receipt of audio attachments from AVS.
Bug Fixes:
-Some intermittent unit test failures were fixed.
Known Issues:
-ACL's asynchronous receipt of audio attachments may manage resources poorly in scenarios where attachments are
received but not consumed.
- When an AttachmentReader does not deliver data for prolonged periods MediaPlayer may not resume playing the
delayed audio.
Changes in this update:
- Added the CapabilityAgent base class that is used to build capability agent
implementations.
- Added the ContextManager class that allows multiple Capability Agents to
store and access state. These events include context, which is used to
communicate the state of each capability agent to AVS:
- Recognize
- PlayCommandIssued
- PauseCommandIssued
- NextCommandIssued
- PreviousCommandIssued
- SynchronizeState
- ExceptionEncountered
- Implemented the SharedDataStream (SDS) to asynchronously communicate data
between a local reader and writer.
- Added AudioInputProcessor (AIP), an implementation of a SpeechRecognizer
capability agent.
- Added the WakeWord Detector (WWD), which recognizes keywords in audio streams.
v0.3 implements a wrapper for KITT.ai.
- Added a new implementation of AttachmentManager and associated classes for use
with SDS.
- Updated the ACL to support asynchronously sending audio to AVS.
